My Inspirational Statue

Self-
made man, the statue I greatly admire and the principle I strongly
believe. "... left to his own devices, man will use his god-given talents to
be creative, productive, and prosperous. Using free will, he will better his
own situation and that of those around him, thereby influencing in a positive
way his own destiny..."

Swami Vivekananda Said...

"... get up, and set your shoulder to the wheel-how long is
this life for? as you have come into this world, leave some mark behind.
otherwise where is the difference between you and the trees and stones? - they
too come into existence, decay and die..." - Swami
Vivekananda

Searchbot is an experimental search engine that investigates the use of mythology, personification and game theory as motivational strategies in creating a sustainable search community. It allows to built our own personal search robot with a personality and then program it's search circuits with all the things we want to find. We can search for websites based on factual information like tags and locations, or more creative ways like colour and the mood we are in. We can even ask Searchbot a question and it will talk to other Searchbots to find the answer. >>
